DescriptionWide-column store based on Apache Hadoop and on concepts of BigTableAn open source immutable (append-only) database with cryptographic verification which makes it tamper-resistant and fully auditable.A Java embedded Key-Value Store which extends the Java Map interfaceMicrosoft Access combines a backend RDBMS (JET / ACE Engine) with a GUI frontend for data manipulation and queries. infoThe Access frontend is often used for accessing other datasources (DBMS, Excel, etc.)Distributed In-Memory NewSQL RDBMS infoUsed for OLTP applications with a high frequency of relatively simple transactions, that can hold all their data in memory
